Solution:

Forebrain contains cerebrum/cerebral cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus, limbic system, cerebral hemisphere, corpus callosum, etc.
The midbrain is located between the thalamus/hypothalamus of the forebrain and pons of the hindbrain. A canal called the cerebral aqueduct passes through the midbrain. The dorsal portion of the midbrain consists mainly of four round swellings (lobes) called corpora quadrigemina.
The hindbrain comprises pons, cerebellum and medulla (also called the medulla oblongata).
